We always enjoy walking along the Thames and did so from Westminster Bridge to Millennium Bridge recently. We had a lovely crisp, frosty day for the experience and were entranced by the river traffic of cruisers,, barges, work boats amongst other crafts.

Beautiful spot to check out and take in the views of this incredible city. There's alot of history and historic sites in the vicinity of this area. The architecture and buildings are phenomenal. Transportation and commute is super easy. A must see.

Take the time to research this historic river before you go see it. It will mean more to you that way. You can walk over it in a few places. The best pictures are by Big Ben as well as by the Millennial bridge. My...More

It's so lucky for a city itself to have a river at the centre. London is one of the cities. Thames River is one of the representative tourist attractions of London and recently I experienced a great way to enjoy the night view of the...More

We are in London, at least twice per year, and one of the highlights of most trips, is a walk along the Thames – or perhaps even a boat ride on the River. On this trip, I had a few days solo, while my wife...More

The Thames is London's river! It crosses the city and provides some really spectacular views over the surrounding areas and beyond. You can't miss it if you walk around in the city. It's worth stopping for a while and just absorbing what's on offer.

Most of London’s iconic views and buildings are close to the River. Get up high to view them from a sky bar, the Shard, the Eye or other viewpoints. Or alternatively walk the banks or take a river cruise. There is so much to see...More

Big time attractions such as the London Eye and athriving theatre scene (compliments of the NationalTheatre and the Young Vic) are but a few of thereasons that Southbank is such a collectivelycherished part of town.

Priya. From Brick Lane you're about 800 metres/yards north of the Thames. The best way to get there walking is down brick lane (against traffic), and when it ends turn right on Whitechapel and then take the third left (Mansell St.). Just follow this road (straight across the rotunda) and you'll end up on Tower Bridge, probably the most famous bridge in London.
If you want to catch a river cruise, turn right as soon as you get to the river. About 100 metres you'll find a loading pier for the tour (as well as a ticket booth).
As to veggie food you'll probably be able to get that just about any food shop in London. About 100 metres before the river you'll find many places to eat (on your left going towards the river).
Enjoy and please ask again if you have any doubts.
